andrea Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 WOW, great tr,looks like you two had some fun and maybe since i've never been there before you could pick me up and take me so I can have some fun for a change
coaster_type_of_person Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 How long was the line for SheiKra? And about the sign for the demand for front row..Do you get to choose your row at all?
Slacking Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 How long was the line for SheiKra? And about the sign for the demand for front row..Do you get to choose your row at all? I went to BGT on Friday, and both times I rode Sheikra we were able to choose our row.
stingrock23 Posted November 27, 2005 Posted November 27, 2005 I think Kumba is the best coaster I've been on. And it's been 10 years since I last went to BGT. I really need to get back.
Erik Johnson Posted November 28, 2005 Author Posted November 28, 2005 How long was the line for SheiKra? And about the sign for the demand for front row..Do you get to choose your row at all? I ended up waiting for about 20 minutes, and we were able to pick our row.
coaster_type_of_person Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 o just the way the sign was written it seems like they wont let you pick your row.
Erik Johnson Posted November 28, 2005 Author Posted November 28, 2005 o just the way the sign was written it seems like they wont let you pick your row. Yeah it does, but for some reason you seem that you still can. Maybe when its crazy busy you can not pick your seat.
Zingo! Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Awesome TR, thanks, very enjoyable. I've been daring myself to eat a McRib since it's return but I haven't been able to make myself do it. After the coaster pics I was drooling over it sounds pretty good. Or it could be the wine induced posting...
niiicolaaah Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 How does that water spray on shiekra work? do you get wet when you're on the ride?
Erik Johnson Posted November 28, 2005 Author Posted November 28, 2005 How does that water spray on shiekra work? do you get wet when you're on the ride? I can't think of a better example than R&E's video of SheiKra: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=17041 As for getting wet on the ride, you get a little bit of mist, but not wet.
Teddymonster Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 Erik, I'm glad you posted this TR because now I can show Jeff a good example of what BGT is like. He swears on his soul that he will NOT go on Sheikra, but I think I can convince him. Again, awesome and thorough TR. That restaurant's dessert menu got me all excited...curses!!!
RctInfinity Posted November 28, 2005 Posted November 28, 2005 You know, I went to that waterpark and it was ok. I got to go on the Silver Bullet and a lot of people got stuck and the park KNOWS THAT! On the safety rules, it actually says that if you get stuck, cross your legs and lie down as much as you can or something like that..
Erik Johnson Posted November 28, 2005 Author Posted November 28, 2005 Yeah you got to lay down on your back and arch it slightly so that you can enough speed to make it down to the bottom. Well....the slide has got to be almost 25 years old now.
smells_like_team_disney Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Just got finished reading your awesome PTR. BGT really does look like an amazing park. Can't wait to ride Sheikra one of these days.
Erik Johnson Posted November 29, 2005 Author Posted November 29, 2005 By the way here is a picture of a real Shikra (I guess BGT changed it to ShieKra) The real Shikra, kinda small are they not?
Teddymonster Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 ^^Wow!!! That is a sweet looking bird. Quite beautiful, IMO. I'm glad they didn't go with that color for the scheme, as it would look tacky as hell, IMO.
SuperGreek1562 Posted November 29, 2005 Posted November 29, 2005 Gret TR Erik! You got some really good pics of SheiKra! I wish i went onto the other side by the water. I could of gotten some good pictures over there too!
